At a crucial stage in the fighting in Donbass, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy visited the region in the east of the country. According to the Presidential Office, Zelenskyy inspected command posts and positions on the front in the city of Lysychansk on Sunday, which is separated from the currently hard-fought city of Sieverodonetsk by the Siverskyi Donets River. Sieverodonetsk is the last major city in the Luhansk region that Russia has not yet conquered. The declared goal of the Russian armed forces is to take over the entire Donbass region, which also includes the adjacent Donetsk region.
The Presidential Office also said that Zelenskyy had also visited Bakhmut in the south-west of Donetsk and spoken to soldiers there. "I would like to thank you for your great work, for your service, for protecting us all, our state," Zelenskyy said in front of the soldiers, according to the presidential office. "I'm grateful to everyone," he added. "Take care of yourself." Selenskyj was last on the front line at the end of May. The Russian head of state Vladimir Putin, on the other hand, has not yet visited his troops in the Ukraine war.
